But the guy isn't a BS'er when it comes to lying about what he has done to hs cars. Katshot and I were at E-Town and say a 300C SRT-8 run a 12.9 and a Charger SRT-8 run a 12.8. He might have a factory freak but either way he still ran a 12.5 and I don't see any of the V boys doing that

I haven't seen a bone stock, as delivered SRT8 do that either, I'll believe it when I do! Now if we're tweaking this or changing that or using drag radials or traction compound or playing with the air box or computer tuning, then it's not as delivered.

I test drove a 2006 Charger SRT-8 yesterday... the car exceeded my expecations. I drove a fully loaded model with NAV/DVD, XM, Moonroof, Bluetooth, the works. I did not get the chance to do a full WOT, but I can tell you it feels much faster than my 2002 WS6 Trans Am and faster than a LS1 GTO or C5. The car had ample room inside (more than my RL) and handled amazing for how heavy it is. The monster Brembos did an amazing job... I almost did not want to get back into my RL after the test drive. They would have sold me the car for $43K and they had a "base" model on the lot for $35K. Now here is the catch, the general manager bought the first one that came in and he had taken it to the track. Bone stock he ran a 12.95 in the quarter mile. For the price, the SRT-8 really surprised me... now I do not regret selling my allocation spot for the C6 Z06... the SRT-8 is half price and makes a more realistic daily driver/weekend track vehicle. I might just have to give my oldest son the RL and get a Charger

I sanned through a couple of GTO forums last night and found numerous timeslips ranging from 12.4-12.9, I'll post some if you want me to, that won't prove they're stock, that will just prove they ran mid 12's.

Missing from this argument are the fast Ford sedans, oh, there aren't any!

Nobody is saying that they are 12.5 cars. That guy happened to get a 12.5 out of his. Its most likely a factory freak. But they are 12.8-12.9 in stock trim

And where are the fast Ford sedans?

Once again what does that have to do with the topic at hand? Nothing. Its just you trying to do what you always seem to do and that is bash Ford. Ford has more important things to worry about then making a fast sedan
